Routings: Standard Operation Process

Revised 9/14/00 for Release 2.0

Standard Operation Process: Standard Operations are commonly used operations that are defined as a template for use in future routing operations. When a new operation is defined on a routing, a standard operation can be specified. If the operation code of Standard Operation is assigned in a routing, the standard operation information is copied into the operation currently being defined. The operation information can then be modified within the new operation. Text, documents and multimedia objects can be attached to each operation within a routing. Before a standard operation is defined, at least one resource and one department must be defined. Step 1: Define Resource(s) A resource is anything of value required to manufacture, cost and schedule a product. A resource can include, but is not limited to, a person, tool, machine or material. Any number of resources can be assigned to an operation. Step 2: Define Department(s) A standard operation must be tied to a specific department. A department is an area within the organization that consists of one or more resources. Before a department can be defined, resources and the workday calendar shift must be defined. The only information that cannot be updated on a standard operation is the department. Step 3: Define Standard Operation Each standard operation is given a unique code. The appropriate department(s) and resources are attached to the standard operation along with the minimum quantity of finished assemblies that can be moved from this operation to the next. All mandatory components and their related operations appear on the routing for the configuration. In ATO model or option class routings, the operation must indicate if it is option dependent.
